The fate of a movie can often be determined within a week of its release. This is the case for Ajay Devgn’s ‘Son of Sardar 2’ and Siddhant Chaturvedi’s ‘Dhadak 2’, which were released on August 1st. After one week, it’s clear that neither film is likely to be a hit. Their performance suggests they’re heading towards failure.
The 7th-day box office figures reveal a disappointing picture. ‘Saiyaara’ has outperformed both films, earning more on its 21st day than ‘Son of Sardar 2’ and ‘Dhadak 2’ did on their 7th day.
‘Son of Sardar 2’ and ‘Dhadak 2’ are struggling against the success of ‘Saiyaara’. The downward spiral has begun. According to Sacnilk, ‘Dhadak 2’ earned only 1 crore on its seventh day, with a total first-week collection of 16.44 crore.
‘Son of Sardar 2’ is also struggling. It collected 1.40 crore on its seventh day, bringing its total to 32.89 crore in a week. This is not a good sign for Ajay, and the film is likely to be a flop.
‘Saiyaara’, starring Ahaan Pandey, continues to be a success, earning more on its 21st day than ‘Son of Sardar 2’ and ‘Dhadak 2’. It made 1.85 crore, and its total in India is now 308.45 crore. Worldwide, it has surpassed 500 crore.
‘Saiyaara’ is outperforming ‘Son of Sardar 2’ and ‘Dhadak 2’. With their budgets far exceeding their current collections, these films are facing challenges. Ajay’s film’s budget is 100 crore, while Siddhant’s is around 40-50 crore. Both films are now struggling.
